Tultex is a heritage apparel brand specializing in basic fleece and jersey garments. Its core aesthetic focuses on functional, minimalist athletic wear. The brand represents a utilitarian ethos, serving as a foundational canvas for the screen-printing subculture and the casual streetwear market.
Sejarah
Founded in 1928 as the Sale Knitting Company in Martinsville, Virginia, the company rebranded as Tultex in 1970. It operated as a large-scale manufacturer of sweatshirts and t-shirts, providing the base garments for the licensed sports and music merchandise industries. Despite a 1999 bankruptcy filing following shifts in global trade, the brand persists as a supplier of blank apparel, representing a long-standing fixture in the American textile and wholesale garment history.
